How to Use Facebook Ads Manager: The #1 Best Guide

Introduction

How to Use Facebook Ads Manager:

First off, Facebook Ads Manager is mainly divided into three parts:

  1. Campaign
  2. Ad group
  3. Advertising

There are three ways to create a Facebook ad:

  1. Through the Facebook advertising management tool, Ads Manager
  2. Through Power Editor, I have introduced this one in the previous article
  3. Using Stiddle's ads manager - I recommend this option for the optimization features they offer

Boost Post

If you are a novice, you may ask the question. Which type should I choose?

Let's put it this way, Ads Manager is suitable for most companies and accounts, which is the most commonly used. And if your company is relatively large, has the ability to play around on Facebook Ads, and you want to create ads in batches, you can start directly from Power Editor or even better, grab a free trial to use Stiddle. The boost post is actually the simplest, which is to advertise the post directly. Users do not need to enter the background of Ads Manager and Power Editor to set up, and they can advertise immediately, which is simple and convenient.

So to sum up, the most commonly used way to create advertisements is actually only through two forms: Ads Manager and Power Editor.

I've written the Power Editor article before, and today I will talk about the advertising settings of Ads Manager

There are 11 advertising options on the target, almost you can think of, Facebook will cover it for you, so now I know why Facebook's annual financial report is so beautiful, advertising accounts for 80% of his income. The advertising options are:

  • Boost your posts
  • Promote your Page
  • Send people to your website
  • Increase conversions on your website
  • Get installs of your app
  • Increase engagement in your app
  • Reach people near your business
  • Raise attendance at your event
  • Get people to claim your offer
  • Get video views
  • Collect leads for your business

If you want to increase the traffic of your website, you may choose to send people to your website, then Facebook will invite you to enter the URL at this time. In this step, we suggest you make the URL traceable, such as using Google URL builder.

Although Facebook provides Facebook pixel tracking, it does not prevent you from making the link trackable, so that you can make two-way comparisons and have more data for comparison and optimization.

Audience Targeting

After choosing the advertising target, you just choose the people you want to target.

Regarding crowd positioning, I taught you how to accurately target Facebook advertising audiences. I focused on how to improve the accuracy of advertising users through Audience Insight. After setting it, save it directly for future use. Of course, you can also directly set the user you want in the background.

We can see that Facebook backend is divided into the following categories:

  • Location
  • Age
  • Gender
  • Languages
  • Detail Targeting
  • Connections

Detailed Targeting can be divided into the following options:

  • Relationship
  • Education
  • Work
  • Financial
  • Home
  • Ethnic Affinity
  • Generation
  • Parents
  • Politics
  • Life Events
  • Interests
  • Behaviors

Special attention should be paid here. If your group of ads runs very well, please save the user group of these ads, so you don't need to reset them later.

If we have a set of advertisements that run very well, many of us like to change it on the original basis. In fact, this is wrong. We can reset a new one and run. Don't worry that the ads will compete with each other!

Advertising price setting

The price-setting of advertising is divided into two forms: daily budget and lifetime budget

  • Daily budget: Expenses per day over a period of time. The minimum cost is 5 USD
  • Lifetime budget: the total expenditure over a period of time.

You can also click Advanced Settings to set up detailed advertisements:

Schedule:

You can set the time for the ad to run, such as running immediately after the ad is set, or you can set the specific time to run the ad.

Optimization for Ad delivery

For the advertising goal you have selected, whether you choose CPC or CPM, these two settings will affect the final display form of the ad and your bid. Here you can choose Facebook to automatically bid for you, or you can adjust the price manually. If it is Facebook's automatic bidding, then Facebook mainly bids based on the user's time period. For example, Facebook found that these people related to your product appeared at 8 o' clock, so at this time, your ads will be displayed a lot (Facebook will focus on presenting your ads to your users during this time)

Other advertising settings should be easier for everyone to understand.....

In the advertising copy, you can choose 2 kinds of advertising display forms:

  • The first one is: single image or video ad
  • The second is: multi-picture rotating display advertising (Carousel)

The display form of the single-image advertisement link is as follows:

Picture ratio: 1.91:1

Picture size: 1200—627 (if you want to display the advertisement picture in the news feed, the width is 600)

Points to note when displaying advertisements in multiple images:

Title: 40 characters

Description: 19

Picture ratio: 1:1

After going back, let's take a look. These are the settings only after you select "send people to your website". Different advertising goals have different options settings given by Facebook.
